Chapter Ninety-Seven: Three Months Later

Time passes, and time changes rapidly.

In the third month of nuclear winter, countless vegetation in the world withered, and the minimum stage of the aura's reduction was infinitely close to before the reiki was revived.

The human population has plummeted on a large scale, and the global climate has reached a calm temperature of minus 45 degrees Celsius.

However, during these three months, some mutant plants from all over the world have survived strongly, and even if there is no sunlight, they are still spreading greenery in the snow and in the gray world.

This greenery is a symbol of life, but this highly hardy mutant plant is very rare.

Mutant creatures lack food, and conflicts with each other and with surviving humans are intensifying.

However, at a time when the world is in bitter cold and brutal conditions, there is only one exception.

That's where He Shu is.

At this time, snowflakes carrying dust continued to drift down from the sky, and within the protection of the He Tree Barrier, these snowflakes were completely blocked, and melted and flowed down the barrier to the surrounding areas.

High in the sky, seven red birds swirled above the stratosphere, dispersing the thick clouds and mist that drifted around them, allowing the sun's rays to shine directly on the forest where He Shu was located and the surrounding area.

The red birds were filled with monstrous flames, and they spun rapidly from below and climbed up into the sky, dispelling the countless thick clouds that had spread from them.

This is the usual work that the red bird does three times a week now, and although this work only illuminates the ten kilometers below for nearly five hours, it is enough for the minimum amount of light needed for the survival of the vegetation in the area protected by Hoshu.

The light entering this gloomy world filled countless people with the hope of continuing to survive, and at the same time, it also allowed He Shu to absorb the energy of Rihua at a minimum.

In this month, He Shu's body did not grow even a little, and all the energy he absorbed was used to maintain the existence of the spiritual power barrier, and at the same time, it was also transformed into spiritual energy to maintain the operation of the world's only remaining green world.

There were nearly eight hundred people living within the barrier controlled by He Shu.

Among them, 609 were orphaned children aged 2-5 years old, and 129 were adults.

In the midst of the chaos, it's good to be able to filter out these people.

During these three months, He Shu clashed with the forces of the Shudu Municipal Rebellion, but in the end, those people also ended up leaving hundreds of corpses behind.

Now the force in Shu City is a force called the Human Survivors Alliance, which is composed of an army of about a few thousand people from the previous hawks.

The number of survivors under its influence is close to 100,000.

In the past three months, the real power figures in Shudu City fought for power, and the sound of artillery fire lasted for nearly half a month, and human corpses were everywhere.

Tens of millions of people were victimized, but less than 100,000 humans survived.

Of course, many of these tens of millions of deaths were not all due to war, but most of them were due to new diseases and plagues caused by the radiation after the nuclear explosion.

And under this cruel background, it is good that nearly 100,000 people can survive in Shudu.

And what could have been enough to sustain tens of millions of people for nearly seven months could now provide the surviving humans with the survival needs for decades.

Zhou Xiliang, the old man, died in this conflict for power, and most of the doves to which he belonged withdrew from Shudu and went to the south in the defeat, and it is unknown where they took root.

And a small part of it remained outside the barrier controlled by He Shu.

The result of this struggle for power between the humans in Shu City is also the result of He Shu not allowing any family members to interfere.

Outside the forest controlled by He Shu, in the past three months, nearly 5,000 survivors quickly established a gathering place under the difficult cold.

These people were brought by Huo Liguo, and it was also under the intercession of Du Xiaotong, Gu Xueqiao, and Jiang Qingshan that He Shu allowed them to establish them at the edge of his barrier range.

The attitude adopted by He Shu in this survival base is mild, but he has no time to take care of it.

In short, He Shu did not admit that they belonged to his own people, and He Shu would not pay special attention to everything about them.

As for Jiang Qingshan and Du Xiaotong, if they want to save and help them, He Shu will turn a blind eye.

In short, it is of course best that these humans can survive, and they can slowly influence them through such close means.

But if they can't survive, then He Shu won't bother with it.

The only thing He Shu cares about now is the children within his own barrier, and the people he recognizes.

All the children are learning knowledge under the management of Fu Chunhai, and at the same time, Fu Chunhai also strictly requires these teachers who are responsible for taking care of the children to establish three views centered on He Shu for these children.

Moreover, these children are not allowed to communicate with the outside world during their minority, and at the same time, no one is allowed to indoctrinate them with previous social knowledge.

These children will be named after a new race, and at the same time, they will establish a three-view pattern that is different from that of humans.

This is a long-term process, but for the current world, He Shu and his dependents have time.

After the nuclear explosion, He Shu's family members collected a lot of materials, including a lot of food, clothing, shelter and transportation, quilts, clothes, and even countless fruit trees, vegetable seeds, and so on.

Within the barrier controlled by He Shu, the southwest side is planted with saplings of orange trees and peach trees, which are connected into at least dozens of acres, and there is also a large vegetable field next to the orchard.

In order to speed up the growth of these saplings and vegetables, He Shu also specially asked his dependents to open up a stream from the crater.

Now He Shu did not distribute the spiritual liquid to his dependents, after all, He Shu was also worried that he would not be able to get in and out, so he only dripped a little spiritual liquid into the crater for a fixed time, and filled the lake with aura.

The living food of the dependents and the creatures controlled by He Shu was all collected in the deserted human city.

There are many, at least until all the fruit trees and vegetables are grown.

In the past three months, everything has barely been calm within He Shu's control.

However, two weeks ago, when the red birds braved the wind and snow to patrol a radius of hundreds of kilometers, they still found the occasional monster wandering around.

And under the tracking of the red birds, the seven red birds did not take much effort to destroy a demonic nest that was still breathing in the crater of the nuclear explosion.

Monsters, this is the definition of creatures that have eaten the flesh of the Demon Nest.

The Demon Nest refers to the Roshan that descended from the sky.

The relationship between the Demonized Nest and the Demonized Creatures is equivalent to that of a master and servant, which is the conclusion He Shu has recently reached.

Creatures that have eaten the flesh of the Demon Hive will be demonized, and the demonized creatures will go berserk and go around killing visible creatures, bringing the corpses of these killed creatures back to the Demon Hive.

The Demon Nest can absorb the flesh and blood of the corpses of these creatures and slowly grow itself, which is the growth and development mode of the Demon Nest.

And the blood-red crystal is a special kind of life energy purified by the Demon Nest after absorbing the flesh and blood of living beings.

This kind of life energy has great benefits, at least He Shu is now figuring out how to absorb the energy in the body of this blood red crystal.
